Hey Peter, As long as the device has BlueTooth connectivity it should pair with your device!

Unknown, I tried it on my Acer S7 and it failed to load in the "Metro" mode of Windows 8

I have Windows 8.1 and still have the disconnection problem, even after following others' advice here and changing USB power settings and updating drivers from the Mediatek website. So, yes it works, but will drive you crazy disconnecting and reconnecting.

Yes. Has nothing to do with Acer. MS has announced free upgrade for all Win 8 to 8.1.

It did not work for me (I have Acer Aspire One). It also did not work with any other PCs or laptops in my household. I recommend you to look for other products with better quality.

I understand your frustration. I get the message that three ports are blocked by firewalls. I've tried turning off the firewall, but it is still intermittent. Also, I've been able to connect to sites when the Acer is plugged in but not connect to the same site two minutes later when it is running on battery. This novice would appreciate any help. Any techies who speak in normal terms out there????Thanks.Williebugs

I used one of these to connect an Acer laptop to a Vizio 37 inch TV. It works fine with Windows 7. The Acer has a VGA port on it to use with a VGA monitor plug.I also have a Toshiba laptop with Ubuntu. The background picture and the start bar buttons are visible but nothing else. However, practically no one uses Ubuntu, so it doesn't matter.

Yes, this printer works with Windows 8. I have a Acer laptop touchscreen windows 8. The computer was programmed with the printer automatically (no need to use the disc) This printer is amazing, because I have also connected my PC and 3 ipods 4 Generation and I can make copies for anyone using wi-fi

It worked nicely with windows 8; I upgraded to windows 8.1 and it stopped working. I am an IT guy with many years of experience but I am not able to make it to work. Still waiting for AOC to do something about it, looks like a driver issue.

I have a Sony Vaio Pro 13 with no ethernet jack. I purchased this and it was very easy to use and straight forward. I run Windows 8.1, and this adapter was completely plug-n-play. No need to download drivers or anything like that, Windows was able to install everything itself.It should work the same way on your Acer, as long as you're running Window 8 that came with your laptop. Although I suspect it will work great on Windows 7 too.Hope this helps!

Hmm you might want to check logitechs website for that, im not sure. All i can say is tht with my acer laptop (windows 8) it works fine

I don't know. I know for me it works with Mac and Ubuntu Linux. I own both a MacIntosh and a PC (MS OS) loaded with the Unix system. I can almost assure it will work with ACER given that Acer comes loaded with MS OS.

I am using this with Windows 7. And, Windows automatically installed the drivers when I plugged the infra-red sensor into one of the USB ports. If Win 8 is not doing this, try plugging it into a different USB port. If Win 8 is asking for the drivers, then the device may not be compatible. I recommend contacting the manufacturer. Pam

Yes, it was compatible with Windows 8... my issue was that at first it worked... and worked well. After a few weeks it became "glitchie" and getting it to turn on and be recognized by my Windows 8 computer... well, it was difficult. If I would get it recognized (in the beginning this was not a problem), when I could get the item connected, I would leave it on, as long as I could. Like a car you don't want to turn off, because you worry about whether you can get it started, again (bad starter, etc.) this item was like that, for me. When I look on the Internet of fellow owners of this item, I found I was not alone in that experience. Rev.
